The Strama model and successful improvement of antibiotic prescription in Sweden
There are no conflicts of interest
Christina Åhrén and Lars Blad
Strama Region Västra Götaland och Strama Västernorrland
The Swedish strategic programme against
antibiotic resistance
“ tighten things up”
National collaboration network
against antibiotic resistance
with the goal to preserve the effectiveness
of available antibiotics.
We can not stop but we hope
to halt antibiotic resistance development
- important steps!
Good hygiene
Use antibiotics
according to guidelinesReduce infection rates

Poor Hygiene &Infection Control
The two main factors we can influence
to reduce ABR in human health care:
General knowledge:
There is a correlation between antibiotic use and resistance

Founded in 1995. The remit from the Government
is to collaborate interdisciplinary on issues
aiming to preserve the effectiveness of antibiotics.

ABR:
• ResNet (1994/2002)
• EARSS/EARS-Net
• SmiNet (notifiables)
• SveBar
AB use:
•PHC: ”Week 47” (2000)
– PRIS/RAVE
– ”PV-quality”
•Hospital: PPS (2003)
– SAI/Anti-Infection Tool
•/ESAC, ESAC-Net/
•Individual drs data

www.lvn.se
What has Strama done/contributed to?• Monitored and analyzed ABR and AB use
• Updated guidelines
• Implemented guidelines
• Set goals: pcV, quinolones, 250..
• Education campaigns: childrens day care, child health, LTCF/care for the elderly..
• Monitoring of complications
• System for diagnosis related AB prescription, hospitals..
• Information to media, public, politicians
• Broadening to multiple sectors of society
• Bacteria have no borders..

Example 1: pneumococci
• Signal/starting point: 90’s, alarming
increase of R in Southern Sweden
• Action necessary, broad measures:
– Decrease ab pressure!
• Strama network is formed 1995
– Reduce spread!
• PRP: mandatory reporting, tracing, containment
measures
• ”Anti-infection prophylaxis” for pre-school children

Important success factors:
• Local engagement – energy from patient contacts
• Multidisciplinary composition of groups; at local and national levels
• Media exposure – public and decisionmakers informed
• Network – bottoms-up, top-down, and LATERAL sharing
• Regularly updated, evidence-based national guidelines, concentrated and brought to the prescriber in and end-user friendly format; including peer-to-peer discussions in small groups

1 X 2
Fall A.
Anton som är 25 år och tidigare frisk söker vårdcentralen med halsont sedan två dagar tillbaka. Han har ingen
hosta eller snuva. Det gör ont när han sväljer men han kan äta och dricka. Han är helt opåverkad och har temp
38,1 °. Vid inspektion av mun och svalg ses rodnade tonsiller med beläggningar. Inga palpabla lymfkörtlar på
halsen.
1. Hur många Centorkriterier har Anton?
1. 2
X. 3
2. 4
2. Ska vi ta några prover?

X. Strep-A-test och CRP
2. Inga prover behövs
3. När rekommenderas antibiotikabehandling vid faryngotonsillit?
1. Vid 4 Centorkriterier
X. Vid positivt strep-A-test
2. Vid 3-4 Centorkriterier och positivt strep-A-test
Fall B.
Emma är 32 år och tidigare frisk. Hon söker vårdcentralen med hosta sedan två veckor. Hon röker inte. Hon har
gula upphostningar men är opåverkad och afebril. Ingen andningspåverkan. Hon har andningsfrekvens 18/minut,
spridda liksidiga biljud vid lungauskultation, i övrigt är status normalt.
4. Vad gör du?
1. Tar CRP för att bedöma behov av antibiotikabehandling
X. Exspektans

1. Tre veckor
X. Två veckor
2. En vecka
6. När har antibiotika effekt vid en akut bronkit?
1. Om bronkiten orsakas av en bakterie
X. Om bronkiten orsakas av mycoplasma
2. Antibiotika har ingen effekt vid akut bronkit
Fall C.
Elias som är 2½ år gammal kommer till vårdcentralen pga värk i båda öronen sedan igår. Han är förkyld och
hostig sedan 3-4 dagar, idag temp 39,1°. Han har haft en akut mediaotit (AOM) för ett år sedan, för övrigt frisk.
Han leker i väntrummet. Status: Opåverkad. Båda trumhinnorna är ogenomskinliga, färgförändrade, buktande
och rör sig inte vid siegling.
7. Vad gör du?

kinderna. Han har temp 37,5° och har inte tagit någon analgetika. Värken ökar när han böjer sig framåt. Han är
frisk för övrigt och är på jobbet (kontorsarbete).
9. Vad gör du?
1. Remitterar patienten för radiologisk undersökning
X: Förskriver antibiotika i sinuitdos
2. Exspektans, symtomlindrande behandling
Fall E.
Sara är 42 år och söker med typiska cystitsymtom. Hon är i övrigt frisk, inte gravid och har inte feber,
flanksmärta eller genitala symtom.
10. Vilken är den avgörande faktorn för att erbjuda antibiotikabehandling?
1. Resultatet av urinstickan
X. Graden av besvär
2. Alla kvinnor med cystit bör antibiotikabehandlas
Reports 2013-2015
• 92-86 % (178-186/200) PHCC reported
• >1000 doctors/year participated in an educational group discussion
• two case discussions
• prescription patterns
• 2015: >700 doctors did the quiz
Report 2015
• Medical records exchanged, read and discussed
• voluntary
• 3 notes/doctor 15 minutes
• all should read
• 60% of PHCC chose this option
• >2000 visits for ID were read
• median: 15 ( 6-150) ID visits
Conclusions from reports
• There is still a need for increased
knowledge about updated guidelines
• Educational group discussions appreciated
• comparative data engage
• awareness of one`s (unknown) behavior
• reading records positive
Conclusions from reports
“It is not only about doctors”
• Everybody has to "talk the same language”
with the patients• receptionist doctor must be educated
• Structural factors at the PHCC are of great
importance
• ”do not see the doctor unless necessary”
• reduce patient drop-in, nurse triage
• local guidelines agreed upon
• continuity in staff employment
• management

Factors for success• Joint national initiative
• Local management back-up
• Top, including politicians PHCC
• Economic incentives
• Worked with the local PHCC/”Strama -
doctors”
• Facilitate the local process, keep it simple!
• Alert continuously
• Joint enemy, important to defeat
Upcoming challenges
• Keep the good work going in PHC
• Lack of time and staff
• Demand for high availability
• Follow complication rates
• Increase compliance in hospital care
